Almost there - need help with last bits of trim

Ok, I think I have it all together. The last pieces of the puzzle are the air vents and leather bezel surrounding the vents. I wish Porsche offered just the Bezel and slats in leather, but they do not. The car will be configured like this:

Carrara White
Sea Blue
P01L - Adaptive Sport Seats
XSA - Sport Seat Backs Painted Exterior Color
XTV - Door Finishers in Leather
XCZ - Sport Shifter
CDZ - Gear Lever Trim Leather
CUV - Storage Cmpt Lid W/Model Logo
220 - Axle-Differential Lock Rear
810 - Floor Mats - Interior Color
640 - Sport Chrono Package Turbo
XSC - Porsche Crest in Headrest
XPA - Thicker Steering Wheel-Leather
XMZ - Rear Center Console in Leather
342 - Heated Front Seats
XNS - Steering Column Leather
XNG - Instrument Surround Leather
CUR - PCM Leather
803 - Carbon Package
CMN - Air Vent Slats in Black Lacquer
or
CDA - Air Vent Slats in Aluminum

CMN or CDA would give me a sea blue leather bezel around the air vents. The black slats would stand out less, but might not work with the sea blue leather. The Aluminum look vents will stand out, but perhaps too much. Anyone have any thoughts?

My spec has a lot of what you are ordering but you have taken it one step further again. Great selection, should be a beautiful car. I would go with the black slats. I think they'd look a bit too busy in aluminum.

Re: Almost there - need help with last bits of tri

IMO?

Get the aluminum slats, they help form the trim line which crosses the dash and visually connects the aluminum door handles on each side of car.

One more thing: painted seat backs to exterior color ON A COUPE are a total waste. Like wearing a very nice shirt under a sweater where only ther collar shows (Seinfeld).

What you _will_ get is a perfect near-mirror-finish place to show scratches from when you throw stuff in the back seats over the next five or ten years.

George, i replied to your PM at the other place. One more thought - how about the leather switch panel and the aluminum package (e-brake and shifter). Gradyex has that and it looks great.

Re: Almost there - need help with last bits of tri

If I were to eliminate the painted seatbacks and the vent slats I could replace them with the carbon switch panel and be done with it.

Sounds like a plan.
